Internet Centrism

WP:NOTESSAY, WP:OR: this article appears well-sourced but actually takes a few books and opinion pieces and crafts an original synthesis of ideas that appear in them. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 20:08, 10 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article is original research that advances an argument, rather than covering a notable topic in a neutral fashion. I do not believe that the topic itself is notable. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 02:02, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Article looks to be an original research SYNTHESIS. Egsan Bacon (talk) 19:04, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"""move?""" should some of the content then be moved epochalism? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cpktpk (talk • contribs) 17:14, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep While I agree with above comments -- the article was a WP:SYNTHESIS and WP:OR, there are references suggesting the concept is an important one in thinking about a highly important subject -- The Internet -- and references to back this up. So hopefully problems with neutrality have been fixed as per WP:HEYMANN, with sufficient references.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 22:15, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete it's a WP:NEOLOGISM coined by Morozov, and this article discusses the concept imagined by him and some reactions/book reviews. It remains WP:SYNTHESIS, and Wikipedia is not a free host for personal essays. Kraxler (talk) 15:49, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

'Delete - Original essay, plain and simple. Why was this held over? Carrite (talk) 02:44, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - even given the improvements, the article is still essentially original research and the term is not notable. Jujutacular (talk) 17:03, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
